Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
A Roadside Farm Field with the Olympics / Hurricane Ridge in the Distance
As residents of this incredible community, we’re blessed to have views that most Washingtonians and many others can only dream about.
And on this particular day, I found this farm field off of Old Olympic Highway to evoke nothing but quintessential Sequim. Although dark clouds may cover the landscapes, we have the “blue hole” to focus on, and May flowers on the horizon as well.
Enjoy!
This striking image was photographed by my friend, and fellow photographer, Lewis Bennett. You’ll be seeing more of his work (and others) throughout the week, so enjoy, and rest assured that whatever comments you may have will be shared with him.
“Early Morning Fog—On a Thanksgiving trip to Victoria, Canada, we visited the Malahut Tower, about an hour’s drive north of Victoria. This is the first time I have seen the fog and mist intertwine and dance among the trees!”
What better way to start a new week than with a rainbow!
Somehow rainbows seem to signal new beginnings and although I captured this one several years ago, I think it’s rather appropriate now. It signals a fresh start not only for the new week, but a new year, and a new focus.
Although not always picturesque or pretty, the beach at 3 Crabs Road and the Nearshore and Estuarine Restoration Project are the biggest draw for me.
Here I’ve photographed a variety of shorebirds, raptors (Northern Harriers, eagles, herons, etc.) and delighted in the forces of nature as they transform the area into a glow of color to delight the eyes.
